Summary/Abstract: The article is an elaboration of the positive epistemology of the victim of war in the works of Walter Benjamin and Carl Schmitt. The discussion involves the Serbian philosopher Petar Bojanić, who in his book “Violence and Messianism” (2018) offers an original version of the deconstruction of the figure of the victor and the vanquished by Benjamin. The article proposes a consideration of the figure of the partisan as reconciling these incompatible positions, subjecting the well-known theory of the partisan by Carl Schmitt to fundamental philosophical criticism. In the same context, the text offers a principled critique of ethical just war theory and left-liberal critique of unmanned military technology.
